Almost a Human Sacrifice.

Witchcraft, and the belief in eyll spirits, Is evidently strongly ingrsfied upon the religious doctrines of the ApRches, as 1t was upon that of our own race m days sgone, as the following circumstance, which happened 6 few days ago m tbis valley will show: An Apache Indian near the head gate of the canal has been seriously sick for a long time. All the noted medicine men have been employed from time to time to treat hlm, At present the great medicine men Of San Carlos are attending him. Some of them begin a low, chanting song at nightfsll, breaking out now and then into a wild, weird refrain; this they keep up all night, while the chief medi- cine man puts in the night blowing smoke over the sick man and cutting long gashes with a sharp knife, pretends to draw worms thersfOrm. Night be fore last they concluded that their pstient was bewitched by a l6-year-Old maiden squAv named Calne, and deter mined upon her death. They brought her into their camp. but that night she escaped but was brought back the fol- lowing day. hung up by the hands and preparations began to be made to dis embowel her on that night. The squaw's mother, who could not overcome her natural parental feelings of affection. even to satisfy the demands of her tradi- tional religious belief in witchcrait, came down crying to Mohawk and related the circumstances. Capt. F. W. SmIth and G. W. Merton hitched up a team and went up and rescued the intended vic tim. The Indians are very angry and threaten to kill the mother of the squaw.

CANAIGRE A SUCCESS.
The New Tanning Material to be General
 ly Ussd.
Santa Fe New Msncan-l


 Santa Fe New Ms1ic.n.l
 Last Saturday Mir. W. F. Shedd, of San Augustine, was in Lss Cruces and called st the Republican office to eI- hibii piece of fine leather tanned by the use of csnaIgrs root. Mir. Shedd has been engaged for a number Of years in SD effort to introduce this valuable material and now bis efforts are about to be rewarded. He has succeeded in getting Chicago parties interested and 6 company has been formed, who, after thoroughly testing 1t. now order q ship ment of twenty-six tons to be shipped to Chicago. oue-hslf ton to go Bremen, Germany, and one-hslf to New York City. h addition Co this all the prin- cipal tsnneries in the east are being sent packages to be tested.
 Canaigre takes the place of ganoria, a material which IS now brought from India st s cost of Sl0O per ton, while cansigre, which answers the same pur- pose and is much stronger. can ba laid down in Chicago st less than $20 per ton. At the first trial ID Chicago 6 lot of hides were spoIlt as the tanners found they had not estimated the strength of the material properly and had to reduce it eight times. They then tanned l,5o0 hides successfully and the quality of the leather Is sad to be su- perior to that made by any other method.
 The root grows wild in such sbund- Bnce that Mir. Shedd claims II can be gathered at the rate of halt 6 ton a day to the man and the ares covered by it makes if simply ineIhaustible. IL has slso been demonstrated that 1t can be cultivated. Those who are handling it now assert thata market has been opened for if that will make II a great industry of this country and give employment to thousands of people.

Trick. of shonIifter..

"We have to keep pretty sharp lookout for thieves these days, said one of the floor walkers of down town store The lifters are up t0 several new tricks this year. and. working as they do in the great crowds of buyers, it Is a difficult matter to spot them st once. Some Of their new games One of them Is to roll a five cent piece or some other small coin over the counter SO it will fall where the Saleslady is standing The latter E,oops down to pick up the money for the customer. and while sEe Is doing this the litter slows away one or two of tbc articles displayed on the counter Another trick Is to approach the jewelry counter with small package, one end of which Is srneared with tar or some other sticky substance. The litter asks to be shown some rings. which he removes from the trays and distributes about the top of the show case He drums on the glaSs with one corner of the sticky snd of the package until favorable op- portunity presents itself. when he suddenly jabs it down upon gold band and strollS away saying as be does 50 that he will call around again. Those are two of the new tricks. There may be a great many others. but We haven't got on 10 them yet Chi ,ago Herald

Chunks of Gold.

That reported big gold find Tn the Santa Cstalinas is no myth. A party of gentlemen returned last night, bringing with them specimens that will convince the most skepticsl. They went first tO the old Pueblo VisiO ruins, thence skirt ed along the northern foothills of the Santa Cstslinss in aD easterly direction until they came to a very narrow and crooked canon, apparently going into the middle of the mountain. But 1t wound ID and out of the cliffs, a deep and dark gorge, with here and there q little pool of water.

How Arch.r kmsd HIm.eIf.

In his early days of riding De was SD slight ly built that he often had Co carry as much as two or three stone of dead weight. but as age crept upon him his daily study was 70 keep below his normal bodily weight of fen stone To effect this be had Co go through shocking privations in the way of sweating. starving and physicinE. For the first named purpose he had special Turkish baths built at his private residence while the chief piece of furniture in his library was lair Of y-iy sensitive scales. He would exist for whole day upon bunch of Gapes. or single piece of dry toast and glass of champagne Of this treacherous wine he was particularly fond, but be would touch none but the very best brands He declared that it kept him alive without in any way interfering with his weight. It must not, however. be in ferred that his table was niEgardly On the contrary, 1t was always supplied in bounti- ful fashion, for be was a grand host His self denial was marvellous. for when he must have been simply ravenOus with hunger he would preside al his table surrounded by the most tempting viands and yet merely munch a dry biscuit or his hard burned toast.
 When the pangs Of hunger got almost past the power of max to resist the temptation to eat, be would adjourn to his library, test bis weight on his trusty scales. shake his head at the last obstinate pound which re- fused to 'come oil, and then retire to bed to be out of the way of the savory smell from the kitchen. Nature, however. rebelled against ths treatment, and the punishment came suddenly and swiftly. The last straw that broke the camels back was the attempt 10 get down to eight stone siK pounds 10 ride St Mirin in the Caubridreshire Ha fslt that it was his last chance to win that event, snd be had made up his mind to do it al whatever cost. He rode but did no; win. On the contrary he was a wrecF, nerveless and dspirited, and utterly without stamina. In this condition he went to Brighton and Lswes and suffered exposure on the bleak downs in thin shirt and silk jacket. with a pair of hunting breeches. The inevitable chin followed and the fever demon seized upon a frame Il prepared to withstand its avages.-London Letter.

Prohibition Sentiment Gaining.


The recent municipal elections in Massachusetts
have seemingly shown that the prohibition feeling
has gainedin the cities of that Commonwealth
OF the twenty-five cities which voted upon the
question: thirteen declared against license for the
coming year, and only nine in favor of it. Last
year the result was very different. Then only
four of the twenty-five voted for prohibition. The
last Republican State convention pledged itself to
the submission to the people of a constitutional
amendment prohibiting the liquor traffic through
out the State. As the feeling against the business
is shown to be so strong even in those localities
where, if anywhere, the trade should be powerful,
there would not appear to be much likelihood of
the Republicans in the Legislature breaking their
pledges. If the amendment is submitted to the
popular vote it now appears that the liquor men
win have to very largely add to their small ma
jority in Boston, and in eight other Cities
to overcome the prohibition majorties in the rest
of the cities and in country towns. Thegrowth of
the party opposed to license has not been due al.
together to an increased opposition toliquor drink
ing. The undue and usually undesirable infu-
ence which liquor sellers WELD in politics, and
especially in municipal politics, has had great
deal to do, with it. In many places no other
single occupation or profession has SO much power
in municipal concerns.
